days . it had been days that spencer couldn’t think straight . days since brooke’s lips had been against his and days since the two had interacted at all . here they were , though , called into work on a case and he was finally being forced to see her again . he was quiet at the round table , abnormally so . once the words ‘ wheels up ‘ came out of hotch’s mouth , the curly headed boy snapped out of his endless thoughts about the girl and stood up . he practically raced out of the room , not bothering to talk to anyone . he needed to pull himself together , to stop thinking about how good her lips felt against his and how good they’d feel against his skin . lost in thought , he didn’t even notice her making her way towards him until she spoke up . “ hey , doctor , are you okay ? “ fuck . the way she called him doctor drove him absolutely mad . his mind was going places he knew they shouldn’t but he just couldn’t help himself . “ uh , y-yeah . i’m great . excuse me . “ and with that , he walked past her and made his way to the bathroom . he could have easily used these few moments of privacy to relieve himself of the growing tension but he needed to surpress his thoughts for her so instead , he used it to splash some water on his face and collect himself before making a beeline to the jet . it was a long plane ride and to make matters worse with him , brooke had decided to take seat directly next to him . it was damn near excrutiating trying to focus on the case and to make matters worse , he could tell she hardly even remembered it happening . here he was , damn near obsessing over her and her goddamn lips and she didn’t even remember . the rest of the team was in their own little world , some playing cards , some busy with headphones in when brooke made the move to lean over to spencer . “ you gonna tell me what’s going on with you ? “ he could feel her breath on his neck , practically sending shivers down his spine . “ oh , um , nothing . “ he stuttered out , a gulp following after . “ you’ve been acting strange since that night at the bar . “ he didn’t even know what to say to her , how was he supposed to tell her he’s been imaging her lips all over his body ? “ if it’s about what happened at my doorstep , i’m sorry , okay ? i didn’t mean to make you uncomfortable . “

chapter five — b.e.b.

                  arms  wrapped boy genius's shoulder , laughs escaping her lips as the team conversed . the thing about brooke was that she was a lightweight since she never really took the time to go out and drink . needless to say , she was feeling buzzed by now , being several shots deep by now . still , she could feel the heavy breathing coming from spencer , finding it hilarious how nervous he had been since the moment she had touched him . it had been this way pretty much the entire night , her being as touchy and flirty as she could and him internally losing his mind . if they weren't already clued in , everyone now was well aware about her not - so - secret attraction towards him and the team didn't shy away from commenting on it , either . between getting called lovebirds from morgan and penelope and hearing the sing - songy voices coming from emily and jennifer mumbling the kissing nursery rhyme , brooke could practically feel the embarrassment exuding from the boy next to her . it finally got to last call and honestly , she was shocked she had convinced spencer to stay this long . she expected him to leave the moment he took his last sip of his drink which seemed like years ago at this point but there he was , practically holding her up as they neared the exit to the bar . she could barely comprehend derek's comment about making sure she got home safe before spencer was leading her in the direction of her apartment . " so , pretty boy , did you have fun tonight ? " her words were slurred but were somehow understood . " y-yes , i did . now it's time to get you home , brooke . " even now , several drinks in , he still spoke so matter - of - factly . " you're practically my knight in shining honor right now , spence . " she laughed at her words , flinging her arms to wrap around his body as they walked . " uh , thank you ? " he sounded confused , seeing as he was genuinely just trying to look out for her . " you gonna join me upstairs ? " she teased , wiggling her eyebrows at him due to the implication . " you're drunk , brooke and you're only saying this because drinking increases testosterone in females . contrary to popular belief , though , you wouldn't enjoy it as much considering alcohol actually has a negative effect physiologically and decreases , um , genital response . " for a second , it seemed as though the boy had let go all of his nerves , finding comfort in his statistics . " you're so cute when you get all factual . " she smiled , her hand reaching over to boop his nose . and just like that , his confident exterior cut in half , suddenly losing all focus on what it was that he had been saying . the girl disconnected their bodies once they had reached her doorstep , smiling up at him . " thank you again for getting me home safe . " it was a moment of softness for her , something that didn't happen very often but she had been genuinely thankful that he had taken the time out of his already long day to walk her home . in her drunken state , she felt as though she needed to repay him somehow and because of her inability to think straight , she leant upwards , hand colliding with his cheek and lips crashing onto his .

chapter four — s.w.r.

                  it  had  been weeks of torture for spencer , working alongside the girl who he had a not - so - secret crush on and constantly getting teased by his coworkers for it . you'd be stupid to not realize it , the way his gaze on her always lingered a little too long and he voluntarily teamed up with her every chance he got . he knew the entire team knew but at the same time , he was aware of exactly what the team was orchestrating , some elaborate plan to get the two together . he was impressed , to say the least , considering they all seemed to be in on it - including hotch . that's why it came as no surprise to him when the team was suggesting they all went to get drinks after a particularly stressful case . " i don't know guys , i might just stay in tonight . " he spoke out , not even attempting to make up some excuse as to why . not that it'd matter , anyways because before he knew it , there was an arm wrapping around his and dragging him closer to the elevator . " nope , uh - uh . no excuses . i'm taking this as my welcoming party and you're not allowed to back out . " he didn't know what it was about the girl in particular that made him lose all ability of free will but he knew he had zero self control around her . once at the bar , the group was practically paired off : morgan and garcia together , emily and jj and then him and brooke , proving his theory about some plan even more likely . " shots ? i think we should do shots . " the mans eyes bulged at the idea , not wanting to get intoxicated around her . " brooke , i don't know if that's a goo —  . " he started to speak before her finger was pressed to his lips , puppy - eyed expression looking back at him . " shhhh , don't let me take these alone , doctor . " his brain already barely functioned around her but it practically shut down every time that word was uttered coming from her direction . " oh , uh , o-okay . sure . " and with that , his night of several shots began . he wasn't sure if this was a good idea . in fact , he was almost positive he was going to regret this the following day but as long as she practically clung over his body and looked at him with those eyes , he was not about to say no to her .

                  her  eyes  filled  with  joy  as  she  watched  him  speak  ,  happy  to  know  she  may  have  finally  found  someone  who  understands  a  little  about  how  her  brain  operates  .  “  i  guess  you  could  say  my  favorite  tv  show  would  be  doctor  who  .  my  favorite  doctor  is  the  fourth  doctor  .  in  fact  ,  i’m  currently  knitting  a  scarf  inspired  by  his  for  the  convention  garcia  and  i  are  attending  soon  .  “  the  brightness  in  her  eyes  grew  as  she  listened  to  him  intently  ,  taking  in  every  word  that  he  spoke  .  “  no  way  !  i  love  doctor  who  .  i  gotta  say  ,  though  ,  i’m  particularly  keen  to  the  second  doctor  .  i  feel  like  he  seems  like  he’s  straight  out  of  a  dr.  seuss  story  .  “  she  could  hear  the  snickers  in  the  background  and  could  feel  the  eyes  on  the  two  .  it  wasn’t  long  before  she  heard  rossi’s  witty  comment  ,  describing  how  her  and  spencer  were  a  ‘  match  made  in  heaven  .  ‘  the  truth  was  ,  she  had  always  looked  up  to  the  doctor  .  she  had  read  about  him  ,  numerous  times  ,   and  was  often  told  she  was  on  track  to  be  the  next  spencer  reid  .  “  you  know  ,  most  people  do  credit  the  second  doctor  as  the  doctor  who  inspired  the  majority  of  the  others  .  they  often  call  him  the  ‘  original  cosmic  hobo  .  ‘  “  of  course  ,  the  girl  knew  all  of  this  information  ,  seeing  as  she  knew  pretty  much  everything  about  the  show  ,  seeing  as  it  was  one  of  her  many  hyperfixations  but  she  still  let  him  ramble  on  .  the  two  went  on  for  the  entire  plane  ride  ,  sharing  tidbits  of  information  about  numerous  topics  before  they  were  cut  off  for  landing  .  when  getting  to  the  local  precinct  ,  luckily  enough  ,  they  were  paired  off  together  to  do  a  geographical  profile  .  they  worked  well  together  ,  everyone  could  see  that  they  were  practically  made  to  be  partners  -  in  one  way  or  another  .  it  wasn’t  long  before  the  case  was  solved  ,  brooke  being  able  to  prove  herself  by  cracking  the  final  piece  of  the  puzzle  ,  just  mere  moments  before  reid  did  .  next  thing  she  knew  ,  she  was  back  on  the  jet  ,  conviently  sat  next  to  reid  ,  as  if  the  rest  of  the  team  had  some  mastermind  plan to  get  the  two  together  .

chapter two — s.w.r.

               to  say  that  the  messy  headed  boy  was  distracted  after  his  interaction  with  brooke  was  an  understatement  . to make matters even worse , it seemed as though she was spitting out facts and statistics faster than he was which only left him feeling more perplexed . he could feel the stares coming from the directions of his colleagues yet his eyes were fixated on her , as if she was a puzzle not even boy genius could solve . finally snapping out of the trance he had seemed to be in , he opened up his mouth to speak for the first time in what felt like ages . " actually , acquaintance  abductions make up about 27 percent of all child abductions and is committed by a disproportionally high number of juvenile offenders . acquaintance abductions also have the highest number of female and teenage victims and is often associated with other crimes such as sexual and physical assault , meaning we very well could be looking for a juvenile offender . " the team spoke on about the case for several more minutes before they made their way to the jet for takeoff . walking behind brooke , his breathing hitched every so often . it wasn't like he wasn't surrounded by beautiful women on a daily basis , as in his eyes , beauty wasn't equated by looks but something about her fascinated him and he was practically begging to know more . walking onto the jet , he could see everyone practically gawking at her , just as curious about her as he was . nevertheless , he made his way over to where she was , smiling nervously at her , barely able to maintain eye contact . " hey , uh , b-brooke , is this seat taken ? " the boy stumbled over his words and he knew everyone noticed , especially with the way derek was staring over at him with his signature shit-eating grin on his face . " nope , all yours ! " he was surprised to receive such an excited reaction , especially coming from a girl like her . " so , tell me , doctor , what's it like ? what should i expect ? " he turned to the girl as she spoke , the same nervous smile stuck on his face . " well , statistically , we'll get about five to seven cases a month . they can range from a few days to a week long , depending on the , uh . " he was cut short of speaking as his eyes moved back up to her face . she was there , smiling up at him and based on the typical reactions from his colleagues , he could only assume it meant a bad thing . " oh , uh , sorry . " he apologized , swallowing down his pride with a large gulp . " what ? why ? i was listening fully , please continue . " this was new to him , somebody who actually wanted to hear him ramble on when he was heading off on a tangent . " oh , um , okay . well , depending on the severity , it typically only lasts a few days at most though , we have had cases that last far longer . " he smiled over , blushing slightly at the way her focus hadn't diverted away from him in the slightest . " and , doctor , what about you ? " he wasn't typically asked about himself , only the information that his brain held but honestly , it was a nice surprise . " me ? " his breathing practically stopped altogether as he felt her hand colliding with his shoulder , nudging it ever so slightly . " yes , you . tell me something about you . your favorite musician or tv show or book or anything , really . " there was a long silence as he tried to rack his brain for something interesting to say .

chapter one — b.e.b.

                  “  deep  breath  in  ,  deep  breath  out  .   “  those  were  the  only  words  repeating  through  the  long  -  haired  girls  head  as  she  passed  through  security  for her new job . it was strange to be this nervous , especially for brooke . everyone in her life knew that she was the one to excel at everything , she had been that way since the day she was born . from day one , she was already ahead of everyone else , surpassing everyone in standardized testing and skipping grades every chance she was allowed so it was no surprise to anyone when the girl was out of high school by sixteen , continuing her studies at stanford , just a few plane rides away from where she grew up in the midwest . still , none of that could have prepared her for the nerves she was feeling this very instant . making her way through the lobby and to the elevator , she smiled as she saw a blonde in bright colored clothing holding it open for her . muttering a thank you , she laughed quietly at the excited woman's persona . " you make me feel so dull . i guess next time i'll have to put on some more color . " the brunette looked down at her unusually boring color combo . between the dark grey pants paired with a white button up and matching vest , the girl was nothing but boring in comparison . " i'm brooke , by the way . brooke burke . i'm starting in the behavioral analysis unit today . " she was taken by surprise when the girl practically jumped in the air with excitement . " oh my god ! you're the newbie ! i'm penelope garcia , i can't wait to introduce you to the rest of the team ! morgan's gonna love you . " brooke laughed at the face being made her way . she wished she could say that she wasn't used to comments like that but it'd be a lie . she knew she was easy on the eyes , even if she'd never admit it herself . she honestly hated comments about her appearance as she took much more pride in her intelligence and personality . the tapping of the blonde's heels brought her back into reality as she followed behind , walking towards some sort of conference room . she was immediately greeted by two familiar faces , aaron hotchner and david rossi , the two who she had met through the hiring process . " wow , is pretty boy not the baby anymore ? " the girls head snapped around to see a rather muscular man , smiling instantly as the two made eye contact . " pretty boy ? " she asked , a look of confusion painted across her face . " i guess that would be , uh , me . " this caused Brooke to whip her head back around , making eye contact with the taller man sporting a messily buttoned shirt paired with a navy cardigan . she noticed the slight shift in his expression when their eyes met and how his grip on his bag got slightly tighter . " you're spencer reid . " she stated , the entire room filling with confusion . " i sat in on a guest lecture you did once . brilliant joke about the existentialists and the lightbulb . " she could see the mans face start to turn a slight shade of pink and could barely hear the ' thank you ' that had escaped his lips as a groan came from who she assumed was the man garcia had told her about mere moments before . " do not encourage him . " were the last words spoken before hotch got straight to business , informing everyone there was a case .
